Jackson is aggressive, confrontational and often volatile. His mother, Kayla, is crippled with grief after tragically losing her husband and eldest son. Struggling to cope, she puts Jackson into foster care.

Cathy, his carer, encourages Jackson to talk about what has happened to his family, but he just won’t engage. His actions continue to test and worry everyone.

Then, in a dramatic turn of events, the true reason for Jackson’s behaviour comes to light …

Cathy Glass' book 'A Family Torn Apart' was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 10-10-2022.

Flapjack

Much too wordy and too detailed - could have been written as a short story

Recensito nel Regno Unito 🇬🇧 il 17 marzo 2021

Acquisto verificato

This story should be re-titled "Cathy Glass's Log of Looking After Jackson". As with most of this author's recent books, this one is far too long-winded and wordy; the actual tale - which in itself wasn't particularly exciting - could have been written as a short story. Cathy padded it out with long and unnecessary details of meetings, police visits etc, and when she ran out of anything else to say, she filled in the pages with yet more information about the teenage girl she was also fostering, whose story she told in her previous book. Having said all that, I know that many readers, like myself, will have been very sorry to hear of the death of Cathy's much-loved mother, which occurred at the very end of Jackson's story. But please, Cathy Glass, in the future think about your readers and what they're really interested in. This book was described as a "shocking true story" and not "a tale of who attended all those interminable meetings, what you all had for dinner, how long it took you to drive to the school etc etc" We just don't want to know!

Yet again, another Cathy Glass book I couldn’t put down

Recensito nel Regno Unito 🇬🇧 il 16 marzo 2021

Acquisto verificato

I have read each and every one of Cathy Glass’s books over the years and my admiration for this woman is second to none. How she copes with the children she fosters and continues to support her grown up family is amazing. What an incredible lady!

This latest book is no exception. Poor Cathy, having to turn over her home to Jackson and his 2 sisters, and continue a reasonable routine on very little sleep, how does she do it? Me, I’d have given up, especially when Jackson became violent towards her. But as always, she kept calm and carried on. What a woman!

It was good to be “involved” with Cathy’s family too. How Lucy was coping with baby Emma, the forthcoming wedding plans of Adrian and Kirsty, the good news that Paula had been successful in landing a permanent job. And the very sad news of Cathy’s mum having passed away in her sleep. Again, Cathy’s parents have always been a part of her books, involved and supportive of their daughter, her family and her fostering. It brought a tear to my eye, although I did have a feeling throughout this book that something was a little amiss with Nana.

Yet again Cathy Glass has produced another well written and compassionate true story and I look forward to reading the next chapter in her fostering memoirs. I know I won’t be disappointed.

Dog in a Flat Cap

Another good book from Cathy

Recensito nel Regno Unito 🇬🇧 il 12 dicembre 2021

Acquisto verificato

I enjoyed this book from Cathy Glass, having read several in the past week. Unfortunately I’ve been reading them all in the wrong order, not realising to begin with that there’s a sort of sequence to them - in one book her own children are adults, the next teenagers and then they’re children, so I’ve been reading them all wrong! I do enjoy them though and give me plenty to think about as I’m interested in child welfare and have thought about fostering one day. Cathy seems like such a great foster carer that I was a little cowed thinking that compared to her I wasn’t good enough to foster, but I realise now that she is exceptional and very experienced so I shouldn’t necessarily be put off.

Great book - easy read and honest

Recensito nel Regno Unito 🇬🇧 il 15 agosto 2021

Acquisto verificato

I've read many books by this author and always enjoy them as they give an insight into the world of foster caring, focusing on the children. So I hoped that this book would give more of the same.
308 pages and 29 chapters so I expected another fairly easy read.
This is a recent story, quickly established by the age of Cathy's children.
Jackson's story starts with the honesty and straightforward approach that is always used by this author. She shares her concerns with the reader but never lets them cloud her judgement when dealing with the child. She always tells the truth (when she is allowed) to the child and here she gives Jackson the space to talk about what has happened to him. It's interesting to read that foster parents do not get training to counsel their children as they often have more contact with damaged children than any other, more qualified, professionals.
CG has a modern approach to most facets of society so it always makes me smile when she used some old fashioned phrases such as "you could have knocked me down with a feather".
This is the first of her books that I have read where there is reference to her writing. It is clear that this is a big part of her life and very important to her.
As usual the book progresses and the reader engages more with the child, eager to get to the end and find out how the story concludes - of course this is very current and time has not moved on so we don't get the usual update.
I read this book in 24 hours, it is an easy read with some disturbing subject matter.

Another page-turner from Cathy Glass.

Recensito nel Regno Unito 🇬🇧 il 24 febbraio 2021

Acquisto verificato

This starts where the previous book left off. Lucy has now flown the nest, and it's swiftly on with her next fostering case. Jackson, a 10 year old boy, has behaviour issues, and that's why his mother had put him into care. So how will Cathy cope? It's no wonder that Jackson is acting up, there has been terrible trauma in his family. I never saw that coming. The situations Cathy has had to cope with over the years, but still she hasn't seen it all.

Another different case for Cathy, and a few other of her own family matters woven in. As usual, very readable, a quick page-turner which keeps you interested and intrigues, and provides a good insight into the daily life of a Foster carer.
